Hi,
I just thinking, modx and modules. When you creating a new page you can select module for that page, and everything else is included by modx, no need to write snippet call etc. for dummy users. modx community is thinking about it?
I have done everything for my modx 0.9.6.3 version, module with parameters including for dummy users, no need writing code for maxigallery snippet, you can jus select module and everythink comes by modx.
This is not so small modification for modx, so I do not trying to do some path or somthing else, I just wondering why modx community do not do this in evolution or revolution..??
I have several ideas for systems that would give non-technical people a friendly wizard-type interface for adding snippets and chunks to their pages. Probably the main reason no one has done it, is because it would take a fair bit of time, and if you have the skills to write a module like this, then writing snippet calls is no problem for you!
If you have already created some code for this, please upload it here and tell us more about it.
I think if you look at the NewsPublisher snippet, it does a version of what you’re talking about.
NewsPublisher is not a general solution, though, and it would be great to have a meta-document creation tool that would help developers create NewsPublisher-type snippets that would present forms for creating new pages. I think it would be relatively straightforward in MODx Revolution.
BTW, we definitely wouldn’t call them "modules" because that’s a specific term that’s already in use in MODx (though they are removed from MODx Revolution). For the same reason, we also wouldn’t call them "templates."
Thanks for sharing the idea.
my solution is not so great as I think before made it. it takes a lot of modx developing, so it’s not wise to write wiki post etc. for modx module usage, becose it’s take to much time and i’m wondering that it helps for somebody.
My hope is that upcomming revolution will have this feature, becose this is very important part of tvs.
